   Thats exactly it.  Everything always looks good on paper, but this was how it   
   all unfolded.   
      
   I attempted to loosen the bolts for the electrical wires on the coil and they   
   literally just unscrewed INTO the ignition coil.  I couldn't get them back out,   
   so I decided to get a new coil, which was a trip to the auto store.   
      
   To get the ignition coil off, I needed to remove the air filter and carburetor.   
      
   However, the bolts holding the ignition coil onto the engine just wouldn't come   
   off.  When I used an impact wrench, the bolt busted.  I ended up drilling them   
   out.   
      
   So after buying a new coil and installing it and putting everything together,   
   the car wouldn't start.  After sime debugging, I realized the parts store sold   
   me a bad coil.  So I went to the store again, got another one, reinstalled it.   
   This time, the car fired up and the tach worked.   
      
   So much for 15 minutes, lol.
